Our 'leaders will, we are sure, .peruse with the most sincere satisfaalion the following Order of Council, which appeared in the Gazette of last night, declaring, in conforknity to the sentiments contained in Majesty's Speech, this Country to be at Peace with Spain. The wise and liberal condu& of the British Government, upon this occasion, will, we trust, not only contribute effeanally to the preser vatino of the independence and integrity of the SPa nis Empire, but lay the foundation of a laSting and intithate connexion between the two Countries, a connexion which has hitherto only been prevented by th . intrigues of France, and by the preponderance whicn site has possessed in the Councils of Spain during the last century : At the Court at the Queen's Palace, the 4th Of July, 1808, present, the KINQ'S most Excellent Ma jesty in Council. His Majesty having taken into his consideration the glorious exertions of the Spanish Nation for the deliverance of' their Country• from the tyranny and usurpation of France, and the assurances which his Majesty has received from several .of the Provinces ' o f Spain, of. their friendly disposition towards this Kingdop, i,...hts_ltitajesty is pleaSed, by and with the advice of his Privy - Council, to order, and it" is hereby ordered : First, That all hostilities against Spain on the part of his Nl:oesty shall immediately cease. • Secondly, That the Blockade of all the Ports 'of Spain, except such as_may be still in th e po ssess iO n. or under controul Of France, shall be forthwith • rfised : Thirdly, That all, Ships atd Yer.sels belongidg to Spain shall have free athnission into the Ports of his Majesty's Dominions, as before the present Fourthly, That all Ships and Vessels belonging to Spain, which shall he met at sea by his Majesty's Ships and Cruizers, shall be treated in the same man ner as the ships of States in amity with his Majesty, and shall be suffered to carry on any trade now con- . to 1 - )e lawfay carri e d on by sidered by his Majesty . neutral ships. Fifthly, That all vessels' and goods belo:iging to personS , residing in the Spanish Colonies, which Shall be detained by any of his Majesty's Cruizers after the date hereof, shall be brought into Port, and shall be carefully preserved in safe custody,, to await his Majesty's furtlieepleasure, until it shall be known whether the said Cotonies, or any of them, in which the Owners of such ships and goods reside; shall have made common cause with Spain against the power of France. And the Right . Hon. the Lords Commissioners of his Majesty's Tresury, his Majesty's Principal Secre taries of State, the Lords. Commissioners of the Ad miralty, the Judge of the High Court of Admiralty, and the Judges of the Courts of Vice•Adaiiralty, are to take such measures herein as to them may respetthTely appertain. STEM. COTTRELL. Though we have nothing new of an authentic kind to communicate from Spain itself, yet the ac counts from Gibraltar tend to excite-'the..most fa-• vourable • expectations of the probable issue 'of affairs in that Country. An ardent spirit of .patriotism pervades the whole of the People, and they seem resolved to hazard, every ' thing in defence, of. their Country, against the ferocious hordes who are attempting to . enslave them. Their chief want is in able Officers, to give a proper system -and'direttion to the national energies, and a due sup ply of military Stores. These wants the provident activity of the British Government will abundantly supply. Part of the troops which we yeSterday mentioned as about to be employed on this glorious Occasion, we learn by accounts from Portsmouth this day, have 'already ernbarked.frona that place, and by accountti, from Plymouth we find that British Troops were also embarking at that pi.-Le %via, all possible expedition. The Spanish prisoners who have been so properly released, and are to be sent to Spain, as oti.e of the many proofs of the interest which Great Britain takes in her cause, were expected to bail yesterday 'from Portsmouth, ittider the condua of Col. DOYLE and Capt. Ii.t.NNEDY. A Report was yesterday circulated that Russia bad declared War against France, and a considerable fall took place in the price of Most articles of Russian produce., .'We should be happy to have it in our power to confirm this report ; but it is our duty to state, that no such intelligence has reached this. Country; at least. in any authentic shape. At the same time, we still entertain the opinion which we expressed Sollle days ago, - that we sh; l 4.lld very scion have the satistattion of witnessing, a total change in the policy of the Ca'oinet of StrPeter.burgh. The Hindustan has arrived at Plyßiouth,from tht; • , Tagus, but the aicounts she bring Are not so late as those which have already reached US. The American Ship Tire, bound from Plitladel., phia to Bourdeaux, has been scut into Plyrnotith by the Growlel' Gun-brig. The Ambassador front Spain to the United States was on board of her. On Monday the Dukes, of CL&RINCE and IcErr dined with h e r MAJESTY and, the P EINCESSES, at Frogmore. Yestetalay morning His MAJEsryj'rincessc.s. COSTA, SOVHIA , , and AMELIA, accompanied by Lady ELY, Mr. OusviLL, Count MoxsrEa; Generals HARQOUET, PITZWY, and GARTH, and Colon:41 'TAYLOR, rode on h o rS e b ac k in Windsor Park. —Her MAJESTY, Princesses ELIZABBTH and MARY, took an airing to 14'rognaore. On Monday evening the Swedish Ambassador received dispatches front his Court. His-Excellency attended .early yesterday morning at the Foreign Office, and saw' the U n d er S ecretary of State. Yesterday a Cabinet Council was held at the Se cretary of State's' Office, St which the Duke of PORTLAND, Earls C AMDEN, WESTMORLAND, BA. ''THUEST, • and CHA.IIIIM, the LORD CHANCELLOR, Urds MULGRAVR and HAWKESBURY, CASTLERgAGII, Mr. CANNING Mi. th CHANCEL.: LOR of the EXCIIEUIJER attended. Sir RosEter WILSON attended the Council, which did not break up till past five o'clock. Letters to the 3d instant were yesterday received from Holland. The Moniteur is said to contain Senatus Consultinn i . by which the National Guards are called out, to supply the plaW of the troop s o f ' the line withdrawn front the different Departments: It is said that, at least, itio,o . ou men are on their, march to join • the troops which BUONAPAIITE had already colie4ed on the Spanish Frontiers. It is stated in some ofThe Letters which hay; been received from Spain, that the Patriots made use of an excellent ruse de guerre in their attack upon Ge= neral DurosT. A part of - the force that attacked that General was composed of Regular Troops, and before the adion commenced they changed cloaths with the peasants, and others, who formed the re. mainder of the Army. Thi s art i f i ce, it is stated, was completely successful, foriGeneral DUPONT di re&ed his principal of brts against those whom, from their Uniform, he took to be regular troops, and had taken very feW precautions against those whom he consid t red. to be 'an undisciplined mob. The consequence, was, that his army was thrown into confusion,. and completely defeated. AccOrding to several private letters from Gotten burgh, it appears that th e R uss i ans a re placed in very . adt er h' se circumstances in Finland. One letter from onocl authority, meutious, that a Russian Fo rce of 7000 men, which has been for some time entrtmoh ed at.Carleby, is now surrounded by a Swedish army of t 1;000 men,. to whom it must surrender, if our information be correct. Among the Russian force 1 4) situated ig, we - undeistand, several Swedish traitor s , and particularly SiltiNGpargN, aid some of his comp‘amons. Letters frott Holland of the 29th ult. assure us that something of an extraordinary nature had oc-, curred4o agitate the Dutch Government. On-Tues day last the principal officers of State were con vened by the King on a measure of considerable irn- portance, but the result of their deliberations had nut transpired. • FALL OF BUONAPA RTE.—If we may trust the pro phetic intimations of a Clerical Seer, the downfall of this sanguinary Despot is, likely to take place in a short time. The Reverend Prophet founds his pre di4ions on some passages in the 13th chapt e r o f th e book of Revelation, which he thus interpretes The Beast rising out of the Sea (Corsica) with seven heeds and ten horns, and upon his ten hprns ten crowns—is BUGNAPARTE. This • Beast,was •to have reigned forty and two Months.--As Emperor , of France, BifONAPA4TE has nearly reigned this exaet number of months.. The Dragon e. the Devil) gave him this power and great authority ; and he caused all, both S ma ll and great, rich and poor, free and hond,.to receive a mark in their right hand—i. e. BIIONAPARTE has caused all persons to submit to his tyranny.--The eat's number was six hundred three score and six . , which exactly cor tesponds with th e numerical calculation of all the letters in BuoNAP4IITE;'s name, reckoning the letters according to the nthnber affixed to each before ti)e introduttion of . .figures, thus :—N 40, A =l, P = 60, 0 = 50, L 20, E=s, A = 40, (the letters ofltis Chi istian name) B :7= 2, O=-- 50,, 7N 40, A= 1, P.= 60, A = , = 80, T = too, E 5, being the.letters in his surname, amounting altogether to 666, the identical•number of the Beast—t. e. 81/ONAPART:"—,-Tilii venerable expounder of divine mysteries adds, that the Spanish Patriots are the destined instruments of I.hedestruc thm of this Beast, , as he denominates the French Ruler, according to the spnbolical language of the passages which he thus explains, and it is said that he confidently relies Upon the truth of his interpre tation, There are very few persons in the world who can wish. that he May prove a false prophet, : Several very handsome Drum-Majors' staffs, sil ver-mounted, with the initials L. N. for Louis. NA POLEON, richly embossed, have been landed from the Guelderland Dutch Frigate, lately brought into Cork. There are also some 'very handsome parasols, silver mounted, and richly embossed, intended fur presents in Batavia. • , Yesterday• Morning the-7th-regiment of Light Dra, goons was reviewed on 1 - loonslowneath by the Duke Of YQRK, accompanied try the Duke of CAMBRIDGE, General CAI:vFa-r, the Adjutant General, .and a number of General Officers. After the review, the Officers of the Regiment •entertained the • Rdyal Dukes with a sumptu . ous dinner at the Castle ltin, at Richmond.- No credit is due to the report of an insurrection on the Coast of France. The rumour is supposed to have originated in ,thetsanguine expeet-ations of the 'Emigrants at Guernsey, founded, on the probability of success in a plan of an insurretaion, said to have been recently considerably matured, but defeated• by the treachery of some of the persons entrusted with the secret. The following letter shews that. some of the persons engaged in' carrying on a correspond ence between Jersey, and France have lately been discovered, and be4z . ved into the hands of the Enemy. ' JERSEY, JUNE 5.--,(Dn the f. t >oth. inst. a boat sailed from. this Island to the. Coast of Prance with Monsieur GoutoN, who has since the Revolution assisted in the Correspondence betwee❑ - and 'When he came within a certain distance from the shore he made the usual signal, which, was itn6iediately answered ; in consequence of which he and two men landed, and were met by JEAN BOUCHARD, who was emplOyed on the same vibe. He informed them 'that Monsieur PREGENT waited at .a short distance for them, and that they could proceed to meet him with all safety. They had *not, however, advaticed above forty yards, when BoucnAuD, seizing Monsieur GouvoN by the el boWs, exclaimed in French—" GOUYON, you are any prisoner !" on which a company of soldiers, concealed - kg the purpose, surrounded him. When he found himself thus betrayed, he called outto the two men ,who followed him to save, themselves ; but, I am sorry to say, that, before they could regain their boat, one of them was killed, and the other wounded, in .two places, by discharges of musketry. Those who had remained in the boat, owing to the darkness of the. night, escaped unhurt. I ana.happy to say that the man who was wounded is in a state •of speedy recovery. •It is very generally . supposed that all those concerned' in the Correspondence have ,equally been destroyed. They are eight or nine, in cluding Monsieur PREGENT, the Chief, who first established, and has since been indefatigable in pro= moting, the Correspondence. I have, however, some hopes that he at least may 'be safe ; having often heard him say that his places of resort were known to • none of his companions. The abstinence - of the, Spaniard qualifies him in a particular ritinnerlor the exertions to whichi he pre sent struggle will expose him. He will perform a journey of 100 miles. without rest, on no other sus tenance than a piece of bread rubbed with a head of Drunkenness is considered a most degrad ing and brutal vice. Indeed it is so rare, that the sight of a drunken Man draws multitudes to stare at the sight, as of a monster. Captain CARLSTON, in . , liis. Memoirs, gives us the following anecdote :—" was one day. walking in one Of the most populous - streets of that City (Barcelona), where.l Iciund an uncommon concourse of people,. of all -sorts, got together; and imagining so great a crowd could not be assembled on a Small occasion', I passed in among the rest, and, after a good deal of struggling and difficulty, reached into the ring and centre 'of the multitude. But, bow did I blush, with what confusion did I appear, whenA found one of my own countrymen, a drunken Grenadier, the attrac tive loadstone'of all the high and low mob, and the Jinn of all their merriment ! It will be easily gined to be a thing not a little surprising to one of our country to find that a drunken man should be ' such-a wonderfUl sight !" When the rumour of an int en ti on to ere the houses in Hyde Park was.first circulated, a Memorial against the measure was drawn up, stud signed by the following Noblemen and Ladies —Earls Of WINC,HELSEA, BREADALBANR,' GROSVENOR, and FRURER ; Viscount MORPETH ;.

Of course all thoughts of • war hre now itid aside. The Coasters pass and repap-m(ithout . being molested." Capt. PATER is appointed to command the Prirwat, Caroline, of 74 guns, at Portsmouth. Two Ships, of 74 guns, to be called the Corny/4 an: PoOnshire, are to be built at DePtford. Dispatches were received yesterday at the AOtnir ralty from our Fleet off Brest, dated the 28th ult. at which time nothing new had been observed in, the state of the, Vessels. in that Harbour., Instruaions have been sent to all -the Out--Ports, with 4ii - eaions to release all persons charged, with 'Dispatches from Spain, without the performance of quarantine,. acid likewise that all Officers are to : give every possible ,assistance in forwarding them, to, London. Similar iustrualons were sent off to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, do dispense with the. performance Of quarantine, in case of any persons arriving from Spain with Dispatches at the Port of Cork, and to give them every possible assistance. The accounts from Gibraltar state, " that a Spas , nish Grandee, the Marquis DE HELos, having refused: to become a Member of the new Government, was ordered to be put to death, and the sentence was immediately carried into execution, allowing him only a few minutes fdr confession.' On his refusal, it was remarked, that none bot those who were in heart Frenchmen would decline to serve their coun try ; and that th e we lf are of Spain demanded that there should be no compromise with such men." Some of the letters lrom Gibraltar give a detailed account of the death of Marquis SOLANOi which differs in some respe&s from that received by the way of Gijon. He was desrreyed in the town of Cadiz in the following ' manner :—The people, en raged at the reported approach of French - troops, as sembled and proceeded to the dwelling of, SOLANO, and demanded arms and ammunition to prevent their '- entrance.—SoLallo appeared at the balcony, and ad- 'monished them to submit to the . Goverbrunt_of- - Madrid; to diverse, and prepare for the celebra- Lion of the entry into Spain of their new King. The populace became more than ever enraged at tni, ad. dress, and repeated their demands. SOLANO retired • to consult with some Officers then in his house; he shit - 0y afterwards returned to the balcony, and again addressed the multitude,*id ioncluded by a peremp tory refusal of their request: SOLANO had pistol* in his girdle, and his Guard of Honour wds on d ty. One person from the multitude approached him,' and demanded• that their request might be complied with. SOLANO drew one of the pistols from- his girdle, shot the man, and ordered his gnard to fire on and disperse the mob. The guards fired, but without ball, of course no mischief - was done: They were immediately surrounded, disarmed, and -after wards joinedthe multitude, who instantly entered the house. 'SOLANO esc.sped throngli the root; but was found on the . top of an adjoining house. He was, secured and brought down into the, street, and was ' adjttdged to be hanged in, one of the tqii.tares. Ou tieing led to ex ecut i on , h e was stopped by his exe cutioner, and asked if lie would have a confessor " I wart no Confessor, and I die in friendship with the French Emperor." This declaration induced a person near him to give him a severe blow w as a cudgel on the head, which was followed by others; .his-brains were literally beat out by the mob, aiiL body,disseeted as that of a traitor. A , Erench Ship, with a misston froth the :iauri• tins to Rangoon, was lately lot on the latte when most of the persons on board, induct ti;t:; ALUassador, perished. I
